Dover - Jeniferever

We hold tight to the ghosts in the stories

We do everything that we can to keep them alive

We take turns in turning the pages

In reading the words, in showing the pictures

The failures and the wait, those days have past

Set sail towards somewhere we will to come fast

We hold tight to bits of the past

Bits that keep the days from aging that fast

We take turns in setting the course

What borders to cross and what places to head to

With their threads and regrets and the guns that they pull

When they see that you’re on your way out from this house that’s on fire

From fights you keep losing, that’s just a last try for the sand not to slip

through their hands

And with hundreds of words, they keep holding you back

And with promises that they keep you off track, but you’re better than that

And you’re better off happy than waking up guilty of faults and mistakes that

never were real

The failures and the wait, those days have past

Set sail towards somewhere we will come to fast

The failures and the wait, those days have past

Set sail towards somewhere we will to come fast

With our hands tied to

Weights that pull and drag towards dark waters

With our hands tied to

Ropes reaching for depths from which we can’t come back

With our hands tied to

Weights that pull and drag towards dark waters

If yours are looser tied

Loosen mine and bring us back
